I didn\u2019t have to go far for inspiration, but I hope you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90738011\/extracting-gold-from-your-data-and-breaking-down-silos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">enjoy them<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a more serious note, as the Founder and CEO of Crux Intelligence, I am bullish on AI, but also deeply pragmatic about what it can <em>actually do. <\/em>There\u2019s an enormous amount of \u201cblue-sky\u201d futuristic thinking around right now. Which is why I enjoy demo-ing our own software. AI can do a <em>lot<\/em> &#8211; but only with the right training, monitoring, data normalization, ingestion tools and so on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when that works seamlessly, it\u2019s amazing how much more productive you can be. Our augmented business intelligence dashboards allow you to make the best decisions in a totally&nbsp;intuitive, human way, in real time, using voice and search. Natural language processing has come a long way in the past few years. Yet the really exciting stuff transpires when the built-in smarts start to auto-surface alerts around outliers, significant changes or trends in the data precisely when they occur, complete with driver and drill-down analysis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Next Gen AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You probably use a voice-enabled assistant yourself to turn on the lights at your place, check the weather, and \u201cPlay Coltrane\u201d to add to the evening\u2019s ambiance. These are fairly routine requests at this point, working off the pre-programmed \u201cIf\u2026Then\u201d protocol of all networked devices. But augmented analytics and embedded intelligence can liberate us not only from physical work locations, but the old ways of doing business. We have <em>got<\/em> to pivot to the data looking out for us instead.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your data is locked up in disparate silos, it\u2019s essentially useless on a day-to-day basis. Yes, you could draw on it to compile reports, but only if the data stores are interoperable in terms of format and nomenclature. If the data isn\u2019t harmonized, the AI can\u2019t ingest, tag, or categorize it. However, with a smart layer which integrates everything, and can then interrogate, extrapolate and interpret the data, you can do really cool things.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apparently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/worklab\/work-trend-index\/hybrid-work\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>73% of workers<\/em> don\u2019t <em>want <\/em>to return<\/a> to the physical office (and a soul-destroying commute). Which means we\u2019ve got to overhaul the world of work. To do that, we have to rethink <em>everything<\/em>. For example, did you know that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techrepublic.com\/article\/more-than-50-of-office-pros-spend-more-time-searching-for-files-than-on-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">more than 50% of office pros report spending more time searching for files than on work<\/a>? Why? Because static information silos destroy productivity. If time is money, then a lot of both is getting wasted at work right now.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s the fix?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IMHO, you need your very own AI-powered augmented analytics co-pilot. And if you\u2019re in the market for that &#8211; come talk to us, because <a href=\"https:\/\/tdw.co.in\/crux\/product\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">that&#8217;s exactly what we build.<\/a>\u00a0<strong>To read more about \u201cExtracting Gold From Your Data\u201d, check out<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90738011\/extracting-gold-from-your-data-and-breaking-down-silos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong> my article<\/strong><\/a><strong> in Fast Company.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Kathy Leake, Founder &amp; CEO, Crux Intelligence I recently wrote an article for Fast Company which illustrates how some CEOs are getting it right in this new AI-powered, remote-working, brave new world with data at their fingertips.&nbsp; While, let\u2019s be honest, others are still in the pre-pandemic control phase, wondering when their direct reports [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary understrap-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tdw.co.in\/crux\/how-some-ceos-are-extracting-gold-from-their-data\/\">Read More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":4387,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[62],"tags":[111],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How CEOs Can Extracting Gold From Their Data | Crux Intelligence<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Time is money.
